Chapter One: Introduction
My internet connection sucks :(
FOLLOW FOR FOLLOW DEAL ANYONE????
Hey, what colour do u think the dress is?
Sound familiar?
Right now, glaring at the screen of my MacBook, that's all I can see on the dreaded social media site. My fingers are sprawled lazily over my keyboard, scrolling down meaningless posts of other people, deciding whether or not to comment or like. Not that there's anything actually decent to read, anyway.
Social media has never really been my strong point. Usually, while everyone's sitting in class secretly texting under their desks, I'm acing a maths quiz like the bloody genius I am. When it comes to living a normal, teenage life, sadly, I, Sakura Haruno, suck. Which is to say, I have zero popularity status, zero friendship status (if you can say your only two friends have no more time for you as they are finally going out) and zero social life online.
You've got one message from CandyGal_247!
Oh yeah, that last part about having zero social life online? I lied. Which is to say I am a very excellent liar. You may all clap now.
With bored eyes, I click the notification and view the message.

'Ino,' I sullenly think. No one other than her or Shikumaru would text me on a seven, on a Sunday.
It's not that I don't like her. No, there's no way I could hate my best-friend-since-kindergarten-friend. I'm so busy with school work and stuff, I don't even have time to hate her. Rather, I'm ticked off because she is the one who forced me to join this stupid social media site, saying it was time for me to 'get a life'. Girl, I do have a life other than being teacher's pet thank you very much.
Let's just say one sunny afternoon when I could be sitting in my cream bedroom, curled up against my window seat reading a good book; instead, this bouncing ball of blond hair came bundling into my room with my laptop and a coffee frappé (hence the hyper-active attitude). Thus, the account
xx-Ruby-xx came into existence.
Looking back at the screen, I'm sure my best friend is waiting rather impatiently for my reply. Out of pure whim, I do.

Life doesn't give a crap that I'm seconds away from suiciding T-T

Oh my God, Ino-pig. Grammar much?
P.S It's 'holy'. Do I really have to spellcheck everything you write?
P.P.S Yes, I am in a bad mood.

I crack my knuckles at my end of the conversation. True to my word, I see if anything anyone posted is half-poetic and decent to look at.
